Early Times Report
Jammu, Nov 7- Bhartiya Janta Party Member National Executive and party candidate from Gandhi Nagar Assembly Constituency Dr. Nirmal Singh, today launched a scathing attack against Congress and National Conference for misleading the people of Jammu for past over sixty years.
Addressing series of election rallies at Uttam Nagar and Channi Himmat areas, Dr. Singh said that Congress and National Conference have been trying to hoodwink the people of Jammu with false and misleading slogans. He said that Congress has been trying to befool the people of Jammu in the name of development while no visible change has been seen on the ground. He said that menace of unemployment has assumed alarming proportions but nothing tangible has been done in this regard during Congress-PDP rule all the lists of government jobs had negligible percentage from Jammu region.
Dr. Singh said that promise of providing employment avenues and jobs to the people of Jammu by Congress led government fell flat on the ground and no concrete policy was adopted by the government to mitigate the sufferings of common masses. He said that more than 70,000 jobs have remained unfulfilled and the major developmental works could not take off in Jammu due to weak- kneed policies of the Congress which always succumbed to the pro-separatist coalition partner Peoples Democratic Party.
Dr. Singh alleged that despite liberal funding by the central government and Asian Development Bank, Congress could not launch developmental projects in Jammu and the plan of having a flyover at Bikram Chowk was shelved under pressure from PDP.
Rasing the local issues, Dr. Nirmal Singh stressed the need for providing matador service from Kunjawani to Bishnah and compensation for the shopkeepers whose shops were dismantled in Kunjwani area. He also pressed for providing a comprehensive package to the small transporters whose business had badly been affected by the contractual system in FCI and other departments. He said that families of the small transporters are at the verge of starvation.
Earlier, Dr. Nirmal Singh went to Digiana Ashram to pay last respects to S. Jaswant Singh, Kakaji, of Chattipadshahi and attended the Bhog ceremony.
